Friday Foolishness – Fatal Attraction Edition

*UPDATE: Because I’m a jackass, I closed the poll at the wrong date.
If it shows as closed, give it a few minutes and it will reopen.

Another week done, and another Friday to be foolish. I spent a couple of days off-line and am still trying to catch up on all the posts I missed. Which isn’t to say I haven’t seen some great stuff already!Becca, at 25 to Fly, introduced us to her blog. Beth Ann told us about her giveaway, with a cause! Benzeknees had some great tips for surviving panic attacks. And Raising The Curtain gave us fashion parenting tips.
(Despite not having kids, if Raising The Curtain and Lorre ever give parenting classes, I’m there!)

Thanks to them and everyone else for keeping me properly entertained this week!But what of last week? Well, last week, we celebrated the joys of pancake dressing. Or, more specifically, what do you like to put on yours? Apparently, the places I go have very uncreative menus. Here’s what you said. (As always, my comments are drippy and sticky in italics.)

Congratulations to whatimeant2say for this weeks winning answer! And from the offered choices, the most popular was MORE PANCAKES!!!, so congrats to everyone who’s sitting behind a stack of ’em too!This week, the big event was that commercialistic phenomenon Valentines Day, wherein love was reduced to an equation of how many of those damn Jane Seymour Open Heart commercials they can possibly cram into a normal tv viewing hour. (At least in the US.)
Since today is the day after, that’s what our poll is concerned with.
Answer soon, answer often, but answer before 2359 EST, on 21 Feb, because that’s when this one closes.
(And if you leave a way to tell who you are in an other answer, I’ll link back to you next week.)

And until next time, enjoy these.
First, continuing with yesterdays semi-rant, Ron White, with some great dating advice
And Wanda Sykes. Just because she’s funny.Have a great week, y’all. See you on the…flipper side!

I’m afraid I will have to come out to my own parents soon- they don’t know how white I really am. I mean, they have always suspected I was at least “she watches too much Toddlers to Tiaras” white, but they won’t expect that I’m actually “listens to Barry Manilow voluntarily” white. Sigh.

I LOVE FRIDAY FOOLISHNESS! And congrats to What I Meant 2 Say- I LOVE HAMBURGER HELPER ON MY PANCAKES!!

I’m pretty sure you’ve done at least one recipe with mayonnaise and white bread to show your parents just how white you are, Ginger.
As soon as I saw wim2s answer, I knew that was the winner.
(The poll is reopened, so answer away…)

For some reason I’m listening to Pink sing “So What” as I read this, just a happy accident..but I missed the deadline for the poll…..so I’m going to given an answer anyway,,,in keeping with the spirit of the song….The day after Valentine’s Day, I…….wonder how many people ended their Valentine’s Day fighting……it’s almost like the day after the superbowl and people are rating the half-time performance and the commercials…some of them loved it all…some of them hated it..I think I just wrote a blog post…

you know it occured to me way too late of course yesterday would have been a perfect opportunity for a point /counterpoint….lol (who cares we are probably of the same point.?.) We had pancakes for dinner last night ..ad Ikept thinking when i was making them..what did i forget that pancakes were trying to tell me about…. I like mine with Peanut butter and syrup for the record.. so if I had remembered …you know its only because i made the mistake of pointing out how I was on it this year.. .. hahahah you should see what happened to my emial box shortly after… I am digging out today.. hopefully.. and Iwould just like to point out – you are not a jackass.. although I applaud the upgrade (better then just a plain ass..etc ..) I wasn’t going to bring it up but then farther down you said you are a lunatic.. now waht kind of friend would i be if I did not point out.. lunatic..is obsolete.. not PC 🙄 .. and no does not offend me in anyway ..at all.. but I was thinking, you could take the two and combine them.. for a totally unique word .. like Jackatic..or Lunaass.. i like the first cause it fits with your ..mysterious who is El Guapo persona and has no implied negative connotation so we could define it as; n. just some really cool guy on the internet who is a friend of excellent character and intergrity and gosh darn it people like him…..but you could still use it whenever you want cause its your word and stuff…
or something along that nature…:-D the other alternative…well its kinda funny how moon and ass ended up together.. and I def like the first choice……I need coffee… .. think i will go listen to some Pink FLoyd.. now where did that come from? Have an awesome weekend – hi to my girl please..uh I mean your girl.. 😀 Spring is near.. (cant feel it here yet..but i know it) yay!

Actually, I kind of like jackatic.
I’m going to have to investigate this peanut butter on pancakes everyone’s talking about.
It’s a nice 50 degrees here today. A nice harbinger of spring, even though
tomorrow’s in the teens.
And stop hitting on my wife! Hmph. 😀

I am SOOO old-fashioned, looking at that list. I don’t ever like anything on my pancakes but butter. But MAN do I like a lot of it. Sometimes I will dip them ever-so-slightly into maple syrup but it has to be light on the sugar.

However, I love tasty recipes in pancakes. IHOP made for a while a “cream of wheat” pancake that was the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted. I experimented with making my own after that. YUM.

On porpoise… good one! You know, thanks to you I’ve started to think in polls… ‘what should I make for dinner…”, “How should I answer this question….” and the multiple answers have the ridiculous bubbles. Man! Dolphin!

Thanks for the shout out Guaps! I hope your picnic was as romantic as you hoped! I’m sure it was with you & TMWGITU in the same room! I’m sure your romantic glow lit up all of NYC. You do remember we’re waiting for you to start romance classes for our significant others ASAP, right?

If TMWGITU is as wonderful as I think, she will understand your brand of special just needs to be spread around more & would forgive us for taking you away for a short time. And then you could go back to her with a “fonder” heart (as in distance makes the heart grow fonder)!

Oh,my. Totally had my days mixed up and forgot yesterday was Friday…I know. How is that possible?! Glad I made it to the Saturday morning foolishness anyway. Have a great weekend, Guap and love the vids. Especially Sykes…she’s a hoot! My dog is chewing the chair so I should go and redirect her to Hubby’s slipper. Take care!

Woohoo! So Joe works in the airport too, and the other night, just as they were closing, in wanders Wanda Sykes for a nightcap. They hung out for about an hour drinking and cracking jokes. I’m just as jealous as you are!

Poll okay now, so you know.
Bottom Line? Hells Yeah! Saw David Johannson (in his incarnation as Buster Poindexter) played there (among other great musicians). Got into the conga line with the band during Hot Hot Hot.
Surprised you weren’t there.
Sad to hear it’s gone 😦
